This major, definitive anthology of writings is a complete and
up-to-date guide to environmental literacy. This major anthology is
the first to apply a fully interdisciplinary approach to
environmental studies. A comprehensive guide to environmental
literacy, the book demonstrates how the sciences, social sciences,
and humanities all contribute to understanding our
interrelationships with the natural world. Though not specialized,
Environment is a book that even specialists can learn from. Ten
innovative case studies--climate shock, species endangerment,
nuclear power, biotechnology, sustainable development,
deforestation, environmental security, globalization, wilderness,
and the urban environment-are followed by readings from specific
disciplines. These can be integrated with the case studies to shape
individual interests and teaching strategies. The volume presents
an imaginative array of texts, from scientific papers to poetry,
legal decisions to historical accounts, personal essays to economic
analysis. Taken together, these selections provide a balanced,
authoritative, and up-to-date treatment of key issues in
environmental studies.
